The magazine "This Old House" has named Church Hill one of the best nine "old house" neighborhoods in the South.  [NOTE:  I am a little perturbed that Baltimore, Maryland and Wheeling, West Virginia  were included in "the South."  Hello, basic geography and Mason-Dixon line?]  I also have been to several of the other neighborhoods - Meridian, Mississippi, Newnan, Georgia, Durham, North Carolina, and the Lower Garden District, New Orleans (where I actually lived after college - LOVE the Big Easy!) - so I know what an honor it was to be in the company of these neighborhoods. http://www.thisoldhouse.com/toh/photos/0,,20283025_20634574,00.html However, within days of this release, another organization named Church Hill one of the Top 10 Most Dangerous Neighborhoods IN THE NATION.  Here's th... 07/10/2009

Church Hill is the Richmond's center of casual hipness and historic relevance. And now your pups have a place to go to enjoy it also.

Though not a resident, I do love the 'hill. Adding the Dog Park just added to the amazing sense of community pride already prevalent. Even if you don't have p... 09/26/2008
